I found these guys a year or so ago...i emailed the site because the email form wasnt operable and i never got anything back from them, wasn't sure if the organization was still in tact. i offered to help incase anything happened in the FL/GA area. Ill make sure to go donate now that i know they still maintain this site and organization!My thoughts and prayers also go to those in the path of the storm. I am not affiliated with this org nor do I know if it is legit, but I got a note from Meathead that says;
The devastation in Oklahoma is horrific. Looks like Hiroshima. There is something you can do to help NOW. Operation BBQ Relief (OBR) is a 501(c)3 charity and it has a stable of Competition BBQ teams who have big rigs and mobile kitchens.
As I write this OBR's Stan Hays says they are heading to Oklahoma City to cook for the homeless and first responders. If you have seen the films, not many people will be able to cook for themselves for a while.
Please go to the OBR website and send money for them to buy food. I make a monthly donation to OBR. You might want to do the same.
If you wish to volunteer, sign up on their site. Rapid response by them AND by us is vital.

stay safe Red!It's been a stressful night of tracking the storms and preparing to get in the storm shelter if needed. There were tornados around us but none too close. The Tulsa area has dodged the worst of these storms. My wife has family who lives in the Okla. City area, and thankfully they are safe. It's hard to imagine the destruction we are seeing from Moore on local news. There is a massive search and rescue under way. Our continued prayers for our fellow Oklahomans who are trying to cope with this devastation and loss of life.
